Damascus in the late 1990s. Kareem and Nabila are raising five very different daughters — each with her own personality, ambitions and complications — alongside a scene-stealing aunt Jamila. Every episode centres on a family issue that brings everyone together to argue, laugh and muddle through. Warm, witty and deeply rooted in Syrian daily life, it remains one of the most beloved family comedies in Syrian television history. Stars Jamal Suleiman and Khaled Taja.

A sweeping historical epic tracing the life of Saladin from his humble origins to his unification of fractured Muslim kingdoms and his legendary recapture of Jerusalem from the Crusaders after nearly a century of occupation. Starring Jamal Suleiman and directed by the late Hatem Ali, written by Walid Seif — the same partnership behind Palestinian Alienation — this is widely regarded as one of the finest historical dramas in Arabic television, epic in scale yet deeply human in its portrayal of leadership, faith and sacrifice.
